Várfok Gallery celebrates its 18th birthday,
its ”adulthood“ in 2008, this year, for the occasion
we organize a series of outstanding exhibitions, events
and open-air shows. The anniversary exhibition series
opens with MISE EN ABYME, a thematic group exhibition
on view between 2008. march 20- april 19 in Várfok
Gallery’s XO and Várfok Halls. The artists invited
to participate in MISE EN ABYME address artistic,
aesthetic, optical concepts and themes such as the
relationship of graphic arts and photography, the
play of dimensions, and the problems of reproductive
technology and reflection.
On the occassion, XO Hall exhibits artists who were
featured in solo exhibitions in Várfok Gallery’s halls—this
time, showing new works created particularly for the
opening exhibition of the 2008 anniversary series,
addressing the theme in a unique, personal voice,
including a variety of techniques such as graphic works,
paintings, and mixed media, while in Várfok Hall,
a selection of works will be on view, by young artists
of the newly-open Spiritusz Galéria.
Along with the exhibitions opening in March20, at 6pm,
we also open our open-air exhibition entitled Gallery 19,
installed over the trees of Várfok street, this time
addressing the theme ”Grotesques“. The glass sheets embracing
the trees of the street features 56 works by contenmporary artists,
in the form of largescale, high quality reproductions: the
theme of the open-air exhibition evokes the grotesque, unique
world of the Scandinavian author Roald Dahl.
We cordially invite all visitors, collectors, friends
interested in contemporary fine arts, to this unique exhibition
that offers a real delicacy for art lovers!
